You have to select the profile (input under the scanner settings window)
then edit. Just before validating all changes close the edit windows except
the LCH corrections. Go under the edit menu and save as modif profile. Save
settings as X modif for more tweaking.

No Henrik is just against monitor editing. What sometimes I'd like to do is
get the white on the monitor to exactly the light box white. That's easy to
do with Profile City display, ProveIt! and others but less obvious with
Gretag without jumping through hoops of fire. Makes you want to edit to
avoid getting burned!

Now rumour has it that Linocolor will be ported to X.
Newcolor is already for W2000 thus Micro$oft BdS. Would be nice if they did.
Newcolor has an interesting approach to profiles, ICC and workflow. It's
like if your the 'pilot' of the D76 Speedmaster with the CP21 color
controller running the beast. The scanner is just another input device , so
just add the entire profile creation , editing , conversion to the app. So
yes you can edit , create, do whatever you want inside Newcolor 7000, but
you need the license keys for each module that are already included in the
app. Could this be a trend? What if Chris Cox added a profile editor in
Photoshop? Heaven, on earth in Photoshop>concept dreaming.
